Edward Everett: Orator and Statesman is a biography written by Paul Revere Frothingham about the life and career of Edward Everett, a prominent American politician and public speaker in the 19th century. The book covers Everett's early life, education, and rise to political prominence as a member of the Whig Party. It also delves into his time as a Congressman, Governor of Massachusetts, and Secretary of State under President Millard Fillmore. Frothingham explores Everett's reputation as a brilliant orator, and provides examples of some of his most famous speeches, including his famous two-hour address at the dedication of the Gettysburg National Cemetery in 1863. The book also covers Everett's role in the abolitionist movement, his support for women's suffrage, and his efforts to promote education and cultural institutions in the United States. Overall, Edward Everett: Orator and Statesman provides a comprehensive look at one of the most influential figures in American politics and public speaking during the mid-19th century, and sheds light on the important issues and events of the era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
